This patch should go to all the stable kernels. Without it the USB wifi adapters with RTL8192EU chip are unusable more often than not. They can't connect to any network.
There's a small problem: the last line of context in this patch is only found in 6.2. The older kernels have something else there. Will it still work or should I send one more version of the patch? --- drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtl8xxxu/rtl8xxxu_8192e.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+)
